The Weeknd Shares Hong Kong Dinner With Tony Leung and Carina Lau

The Weeknd enjoyed a private dinner in Hong Kong with actor Tony Leung and actress Carina Lau, sharing a glimpse of the gathering before his scheduled concerts in the city. The Canadian singer, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, reportedly arrived about a week before the performances and was welcomed by the Hong Kong entertainment couple. The three posed together with Victoria Harbour in the background. Leung wore a blue shirt and jeans, while The Weeknd was dressed in black. The meal took place at Cartier's La Residence and, according to the report, included abalone pasta, wagyu beef tenderloin with prawn and Alba white truffle. The singer left a handwritten thank-you message on the menu, addressing it to Carina and Tony and signing it as their friend. The note added a personal touch to an evening that quickly drew attention online, with fans surprised to see the international music star dining with the Hong Kong actors. The gathering also prompted speculation about a possible musical nod. The Weeknd's song “Scared to Live” was noted for its connection to Wong Kar Wai's 1994 film Chungking Express, which starred Leung and Faye Wong. Some fans saw the song as a fitting reference to the actor and the movie, though the report did not say whether that was the singer's intention. The photos themselves became a talking point, with some social media users initially wondering if the unexpected group portrait was AI-generated. Others called the meeting a “magical crossover,” while another commenter joked that the menu was impressive both for its dishes and its company. The dinner offered an unusual celebrity pairing as The Weeknd prepared for his Hong Kong shows.
